This is my space to document a project Mrs. Kate Kenyon and I will be implementing in the spring of 2011 with our fifth graders. We will be collaborating with one another this coming spring and allowing our students the opportunity to collaborate with one another via blogs and "E-Pals".
This project will span the course of the entire spring semester. The students will compose their own lyrics to a song for their graduation/moving up day in June. They will explore the emotions surrounding graduations, how we can express those emotions through lyrics and music, and experiment with writing a melody and an accompaniment for the song. Students will document their journey through the use of blogs and "tweets" and record their ideas, thoughts, areas of growth, and other wonderments they may have.
I Want Your Help!
My goal is to not become to "wedded" to my ideas. Help me out! As Dr. Campbell reminded us, collaboration involves feedback, constructive criticism and ideas, and most important of all, SHARING. I want your input to make the experiences my students have meaningful!
